"Several reasons! For one, the Senator himself likely is supporting his own criminal activities. Even if he isn't, it will be nearly impossible for him to reign in the activities of the Mafia. He cannot oppose them and it is ludicrous that he is trying."

The Elder is unwilling to allow other assassins to help you. He is confident you can do this on your own.

Rylph explains that the Mafia is not really very united as a criminal organization. It is subdivided in territories and run by a whole rogue's gallery, ranging from brutish enforcers to petty thieves to criminal masterminds.

"It is more of a term used to cover all the interconnected criminal groups," Rylph says. "'The Mafia is everywhere,' that sort of thing. Not much crime exists on Tutalone that is not tied back into that idea somehow."

He thinks it possible that you may find some help within the criminal underworld with your plot.

"Hmmm," Rylph says. "You may need to investigate that once you arrive on Tutalone. I am not familiar with the likes of the Mafia, though the Fellowship has performed dealings with them. I may be able to provide a contact for you. Otherwise, you are on your own as soon as you step foot on Tutalonian soil."

"That would be much appreciated," Relle says gratefully, though annoyed that he was unable to tell her anything more useful about the Mafia's operations. "Is there anything else I should know about the Senator or his opponents?"

Okay! The Fellowship is willing to ferry you off of Wa in order to get you to the main space travel routes; after that, you are on your own getting to Tutalone. Fortunately, Tutalone is close to many spacer lanes.

It doesn't take you long to find someone like that, some down on his luck spacer willing to take you wherever for a lump sum of credits. He asks no questions and says little other than telling you where to go and when he's leaving.

You have some options. There is a maintenance door next to the ship that leads into the starport's innards. Or you think you could clear jump onto the bay's roof, where there is an assortment of stuff you can sneak behind.
